not really. for small ones i guess.... i used to just dab lemon on my pimples, that lightened them up but burned alot

yeah it dries it out. whenever i have a zit i put a hot towel on it, pop it and put toothpaste on it before bed. works like a charm.
take a shot of vinegar. it burns like crazy. it's not pleasant at all. but it will clear your skin and organs.

it depends what type of skin you have. if you ever put pimple cream on your face and it burns a little, it means its working. toothpaste does that. my friend tried it and it helped clear them. it didnt remove them though.

Was this answer helpful to you?  Yes  /  No



Smart_QT
It doesn't exatly clear it but if you put it on before you go to bed and it dries up your pimple. Then in the morning if you play with it a little (don't use your fingers use a cue tip) then it will fall down. Hope this helps

some of the ingredients dry the oil out of the pores and and also work as a type of "drawing salve" another thing is the Camphor or spearmint which increase blood flow in the capillaries help aid in the natural cleansing process as well as opening up pores but there are much better remedies on the market than toothpaste for acne

No. The best thing you can do is was your face with a cleanser called cetaphil, once in the morning, once in the night. Do not scrub your face, just use you hands to massage it in. Pat your face dry with a towel, do not rub. Then get Neutrogena On-the-Spot acne Treatment. Only treat the pimples, don't rub it all over your face. Keep your hair off your face, try to wash it if you get sweaty and do not touch it with your greasy fingers other than to wash it.
